The Blood Woman slowly explained, "Husband, no matter what kind of zombie it is, what they care about most is their own evolution. The N-type zombie is the same. And other zombies are the soldiers of the N-type zombie, helping them to search for flesh and blood to feed the N-type zombie."
"With so many zombies in this city, a large number of N-type zombies and even more advanced N2 or N3 zombies will definitely emerge. These N-type zombies will also control the other zombies in their territories to prevent them from taking away their resources."
"But it's incredible that so many zombies in this city haven't been controlled by the N-type zombies."
Jiang Wu asked, "Is it possible that all the Type N zombies in this city have already run away? Don't zombies migrate? Did those Type N zombies feel that there was no more flesh and blood for them to evolve here, so they left with their elites?"
After a moment of contemplation, Blood Woman shook her head and said, "Husband, I can sense that there are still quite a few living people in this city. Those advanced N-type zombies must be able to sense it too. Given their cautious yet greedy nature, they will not leave easily, and even if they do, it is unlikely that they will all leave."
Jiang Wu asked in surprise, "There are still quite a few living people in this city? Can you pinpoint their exact locations?"
The Blood Woman shook her head and said, "Husband, my ability can only sense a large area, not a specific location. In my perception, there are living people in many places in this city."
After a few seconds of silence, Blood Woman said seriously, "Honey, that's why I feel this place is very strange. The survivors and zombies seem to be playing hide-and-seek, while the Type N zombies have disappeared, but I can also sense that there are Type N zombies here."
"Under normal circumstances, the N-type zombies in this city should control a large number of zombies to hunt down the hiding survivors. But now, I don't know where those N-type zombies have gone. It's as if they are not interested in the hiding survivors in the city."
Ning Chuxia then said, "Brother Wu, Sister Ding, I can feel a very eerie atmosphere in this city. It feels terrifying, but when I try to sense it more closely, I'm not so sure."
The Blood Woman nodded and said, "So you have this feeling too. I thought it was just my imagination."
Jiang Wu suddenly realized that things were getting serious.
This city is so strange, should we just storm it like this?
Even the Blood Woman felt a terrifying aura emanating from the city. Should they really just storm in like that?
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Wu said seriously, "It seems that the start of the battle will have to be postponed. We must find out what the situation is in this city. Since the disaster, the world has become increasingly unfamiliar. We cannot joke with the lives of our soldiers."
After saying that, he looked at Zi Ling and Chen Yin beside him and said, "You two go back first and let them make more thorough preparations. The general attack originally scheduled for 2 pm is temporarily canceled."
Zi Ling and Chen Yin respectfully replied, "Yes!"
After the two of them rode away on a large golden bird, Jiang Wu looked at Blood Woman and Ning Chuxia and said, "Xiao Ran, Chuxia, try your best to sense the anomalies in this city. If you can find places where humans are active, that would be even better. You might be able to get some useful information from the survivors here."
Blood Woman and Ning Chuxia nodded.
Two giant birds circled in the sky.
The city of Tongcheng is quite large. Even though Blood Woman and Ning Chuxia are half-human, half-corpse beings with a high degree of evolution, it is still very difficult for them to find anomalies and humans.
More than an hour later, the Blood Woman finally found the presence of living people.
A secluded villa, the yard filled with mutated plants.
Several zombies were wandering outside the villa's wall when a grayish-blue M-shaped zombie suddenly climbed up the wall, peering into the villa and sniffing something from time to time.
Suddenly, an arrow whistled through the air and struck the back of the M-shaped zombie's head with pinpoint accuracy. The arrow was incredibly powerful, its tip piercing through the skull and appearing between the zombie's eyebrows.
The M-type zombie was carried into the courtyard by the immense force and lay motionless on the ground.
The zombies outside the wall were completely unaware of this and continued to wander aimlessly, occasionally raising their heads to sniff.
Soon, several more arrows pierced the sky, accurately striking the heads of these zombies.
Everything returned to calm.
After a while, seemingly feeling that there was no danger in the vicinity, a slender figure appeared next to the zombie's corpse.
She pulled out the arrows one by one, wiped the arrowheads clean on the zombie's clothes, and then put the arrows into the quiver on her back.
After doing all this, the woman dragged the zombie's body for dozens of meters and threw it into a large pit.
That huge pit was several dozen square meters in size and several meters deep. Before the apocalypse, a basement was being built here.
But by then, it had become the best burial site.
However, although the pit was large, it was almost completely filled with the corpses of zombies.
Many of the corpses below had already turned into skeletons.
Corpse fluids flowed freely, and the stench was overwhelming.
However, the woman was already used to it. After doing all this, she entered the villa that looked like it had been abandoned for a long time.
The room was dark and damp, filled with a pungent stench of decay. Furniture was overturned and scattered with miscellaneous items, a testament to the chaos and despair that had once filled the room.
The woman surveyed the villa and, after confirming it was safe, opened the door to the basement.
A man guarding the stairs saw the door open and his heart tightened. He gripped his steel spear tightly, but when he saw the woman, he exclaimed with joy, "Qingying! You're back!"
The dim lighting in the basement illuminated the woman's beautiful face, making her appear exceptionally charming.
This woman named Qingying is very beautiful and not very old, at most 20 years old.
However, the woman's expression was unusually cold. Her large eyes, which should have been full of vitality, were now like a stagnant pool, devoid of any emotion.
She didn't even glance at the man, but slowly descended the stairs.
In the dim light, the scene in the basement gradually became clear.
A dozen or so people, all women and children, sat around a huge solid wood table.
Everyone was thin, dressed in rags, with exposed skin that was a sickly sallow or bluish-green, their hair dry and messy, and their eyes filled with fear and exhaustion.
Most of them, due to long-term malnutrition, seemed to lack even the strength to move, and all slumped in their chairs.
Only a few women were polishing arrowheads and smashing tree bark.
Upon seeing the woman return, all the men perked up, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.
"Qingying!"
"Sister Qingying!"
An older, thin woman in charge of food distribution quickly placed the bark on the table, stood up, used a key to unlock a nearby cabinet, and took out a thermal container.
